The Republic of Ireland international has been linked with a transfer to the Premier League, following a prolific period in the Eredivisie. Parrott scored five times against Portugal and Hungary in November, to seal Ireland's place in the play-offs. Former Republic of Ireland international Shay Given has said Parrott is ready for a big move and believes Everton could be an ideal fit. The way David Moyes is developing this Everton team, Everton wouldn’t be the worst shout for him, actually.
